What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionGastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor with a high mortality rate.
aimTo determine the accuracy of preoperative imaging information obtained from the combined use of general gastroscopy (GS), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) regarding absolute indication of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in early gastric cancer (EGC). MATERIAL AND
methodsThe relationship between clinical features of 794 EGC patients and lymph node metastasis (LNM) was analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors for LNM. Additionally, the accuracy of diagnosis of imaging techniques for ESD indications was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.
resultsData showed that tumor size > 2 cm (p = 0.0071), T1b stage (p < 0.0001), undifferentiated histology (p < 0.0001), and vascular invasion (p = 0.0007) were independent risk factors for LNM in patients with EGC. Indications for ESD have a specificity of 100% for the diagnosis of patients with LNM. Additionally, the diagnostic efficacy of the use of GS, EUS, and MDCT in identifying node positive status, T1a disease, tumor size ≤ 2 cm, and ulceration was found to be moderate with area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of 0.71, 0.64, 0.72, and 0.68, respectively. Furthermore, the use of imaging techniques for overall indication criteria for ESD had a moderate utility value with an AUC of 0.71.
conclusionsOur data suggested that, based on the combined use of GS, EUS, and MDCT, a high specificity of patient selection for ESD treatment can be achieved.
